ALL BUSINESS WILL CLOSE AFTERNOONS OF ROUND-UP There is a naiton-wlde Interest In the Round-up and that interest Is not confined to those who have seen the show or expect to see it this year. Many unable to attend are keenly In terested in what is going to happen and In what has occurred at past Round-ups. It is largely for the benefit of such people that the East Oregonian is go ing to such efforts to publish a fine series of papers during the Round up. - Thej-!tount"p " numbers' this year will be the best and largest ever published. There will be a 28-page paper each day. Instead of a 24-page paper as previously announced. Each issue will be well illustrated and will contain not only the actual Round-up news, handled by experienced men, but will include many appropriate stories relating to western life. If you wish to send something to friends or relatives to give them a taste of the Roundup and the Round-j up spirit you can do nothing better. than to send them the East Oregon Ian during the show. The entire se ries may be had. the papers wrapped, adilrejysed and posted for 25 cents. Place your orders now and avoid the rush. There will be no business done in Pendleton during Round-up days from 1 o'clock until S In the after noon. The town will simply shut up t-hop and go to the show. The con sent of all of the business houses to this agreement is being solicited this afternoon by C. E. Roosevelt and G. B. Wyrlck, representing the Commer cial association, and they are meeting with success. Postmaster T. J.
